Chicken Alaska

Yesterday we took a little drive in the jeep with 4 friends.....just 96 miles to Chicken, Alaska on mostly paved roads...then further on down the same road another 65 miles to Eagle, Alaska on dirt and gravel road. We enjoyed our trip to Chicken.  We got to see 4 moose. 2 adults and 2 babies.
Chicken is an old mining town with lots of old mining equipment.
That's a mining dredge behind the moose.
Downtown Chicken.
Then we headed to Eagle, Alaska...population 86 at the end of a long 65 mile gravel/dirt road. This Y the left leads to Eagle and the right fork is what is known as the Top of the World Highway to Dawson City, Yukon...I think we chose the wrong road.  We were going for lunch and this is what we ended up with in Eagle.
Oh well...we had a fun time...just a very long day.  Life is good and on to more adventures.
